Round and Round~

Hi All~Can I say sorry for the photo, don't know why it looks so insipid, it's quite purple, but looks a bit wishy washy~Well good start to the week for me I am glad to say.I have been to my monthly craft meeting called Cut and Chat (yes...there is a lot of chat goes on!, but thats good!) Where 8 to 10 ladies meet up, craft and drink coffee/tea for two hours, it is bliss...What more could you want, good company and craft.

When I got home I was desperate to make a card, as at the group I was Scrapbooking my daughters Egypt holiday photo's.Anya was on the books tonight. This is not a stamp I have, a friend stamped her for me, she is lovely isn't she? Not sure what her name is, I like the way she has a little apron on...cute!

I wanted to do a circle easle card, as the Anyone for Anya challenge said NO SQUARE cards~~That one always throws me, as I am a 6x6 girl...but I was quite pleased with the finished result, what do you think?

Not sure who makes this purple circle paper as It was a piece I had left over.I decided to stamp flowers onto it and cut them out, I then added glossy accents to the centre of them. A MS punch was used for the border, I have also used the oval Nestie around Anya, and the ribbon is so sweet, pale lilac dotty, bought from the internet.Voila~

Love your easel card Debbie! The round shape is AMAZING....This week's challenge was my first easel card so I followed the instructions to the letter. Great take on our Paper Sundaes challenge, thanks for playing along with us again this week :)

WOW those flowers are brill! They look like they took hours to make! Lovely colors, and Miss Anya is one of my absolute favorites!!P.S. Please come check out my new challenge blog! The first challenge starts Sunday, May 23rd. I hope to see you there! xo Kelli

About Me

Hi my name is Debbie, I live in Cumbria, a lovely part of the Lake District. I have been married to my lovely husband for 31 years and together we have two children age 25 and 23. I stopped working a few years ago, so I now have plenty of time to craft. I have been papercrafting properly for the past 12+ years, but started out as a watercolour painter (don't get time enough to do that now though). These days I spend most of my free time Scrapbooking, cardmaking and all types of Altered Art, I just love it.
My other passions are "Films", I love them, and I will watch anything, but favorites are Gladiator, The Green Mile, Shawshank Redemption and the old B&W Rebecca. My other passion are "Pigs"...one of my favorite animal ever. I just love their little faces and would love a Micro pig....Gorgeous, but not practical!
Thank you for visiting my blog...enjoy.
